DNC Kicking Some Ass
I just received this email from Tom McMahon Exec. Director of the DNC. It sure looks like they are out for a war with Disney/ABC, and none too soon IMO.
Here are a few excerpts:Dear Fellow Democrat, Does a major national broadcast network want to stain itself by presenting an irresponsible, slanderous, fraudulent, "docu-drama" to the American public? Not if you and I have the last word -- but either way, we're about to find out.[snip] The miniseries, which was put together by right-wing conservative writers, relies on the old GOP playbook of using terrorism to scare Americans. "The Path to 9/11" mocks the truth and dishonors the memory of 9/11 victims to serve a cheap, callous political agenda. It irresponsibly misrepresents the facts and completely distorts the truth.[snip] ABC is trying to use of the airwaves -- airwaves owned by you and me, and loaned to broadcasters as a public trust -- to slander Democrats and sell a slanderous, irresponsible fraud to the American people, and they're shamefully doing it just weeks away from Election Day. The Walt Disney Corporation could have given Americans an honest look at September 11. Instead, the company abandoned its duty to the truth -- and embraced the fiction known as "The Path to 9/11." We've got to stop this now. ABC/Disney must face an accountability moment. You can ratchet up the pressure on ABC by sending your own letter to Walt Disney CEO Robert Iger -- tell him to keep this propaganda off their air. We'll keep you up to date as this story evolves. Thank you, Tom Tom McMahon Executive Director Democratic National CommitteeYou can sign the DNC petition to ABC and include your thoughts and objections to this obscenity HERE.. If you wish to read the entire email, it is available at the DNC Blog, and stay updated with the latest happenings at Open Letter to ABC. |
